“On immigration and many other things, there IS a split.”
Yes, but it’s not a North-South split.
As someone from the North, I feel closest in political philosophy to men like Jeff Sessions of Alabama, Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, and Fred Thompson of Tennessee; all Southerners.
On the other hand there are other Southerners such as Mel Martinez, Lindsay Graham, and Mike Huckabee who I largely disagree with.
In my opinion the split in the Republican party is between real and fake conservatism. The fake conservatives have been running the party, and the real conservatives among the party rank and file are fed up with it.
Sorry, I didn’t read your reply before writing #50. Please see it.

Your post is Spot on. There is no North-South issue, only the Rhino issue is important. We know Rhinos such as POS Mike Dewine and Gov. Shaft have screwed up the Republican party in Ohio for the next 10 years. Jeff Sessions is probably my favorite of the list you mention.
